If you can come out and make ONE contact...
We need volunteers to make a satellite contact for Field Day. At least with
recent events, we have not been able to bag a bird contact, so I'm asking
for VOLUNTEERS!  It's very fast paced, and will require at least two people
radio(s), antenna, and an audio recorder (so you don't have to write things
down). Please reply to this thread.

Satellite Passes for the EM97 area:
Saturday, 2:00 - 2:07pm - AO-85
Saturday, 10:26 - 10:41pm - AO-85 (86 degrees!)
Sunday, 1:30 - 1:43am - AO91
Sunday, 4:20 - 4:31am - ISS (should be able to see the pass with clear
skies)
Sunday, 11:26 - 11:39am - AO-95
Sunday, 11:42 - 11:54am - AO-92
Sunday, 12:22 - 12:37pm - AO-91
Sunday, 12:28 - 12:39pm - ISS
Sunday, 12:38 - 12:51pm - AO-85

Rule:
7.3.7. Satellite QSO: 100 bonus points for successfully completing at least
one QSO via an amateur radio satellite during the Field Day period.
"General Rules for All ARRL Contests" (Rule 3.7.2.), (the no-repeater QSO
stipulation) is waived for satellite QSOs. Groups are allowed one dedicated
satellite transmitter station without increasing their entry category.
Satellite QSOs also count for regular QSO credit. Show them listed
separately on the summary sheet as a separate "band." You do not receive an
additional bonus for contacting different satellites, though the additional
QSOs may be counted for QSO credit unless prohibited under Rule 7.3.7.1.
The QSO must be between two Earth stations through a satellite. Available
to Classes A, B, and F. 7.3.7.1 Stations are limited to one (1) completed
QSO on any single channel FM satellite

73!
